This propagation method uses clear plastic recycled containers (e.g. milk jugs and salad containers) and potting soil to start seeds outdoors during the winter. This workshop will go over the method, which plants are best to winter sow, which plants are more challenging to winter sow, and what to do once your seeds have germinated in the spring. Everyone will leave with at least one winter sown jug and the confidence to sow more for their garden.

All materials included. Warm cider, coffee, tea, simple snack, and cozy atmosphere included.

Please reach out to volunteer@growingtogive.farm with any questions. We hope to see you there!
